Hello all my lovely readers! I apologise for me being M.I.A for the last little while, I could provide you with a million and one reasons as to why but Im going to settle with just a simple sorry.

So last week I went to the royal show… excepting a day of expensive rides, showbags and the fear of entering a sugar coma. Yet I was totally surprised (and alright ill admit it) I was so proud of what I saw. This year they had displays on sustainability! It was Fantastic! What a way to educate such a large proportion of the community on the harm that our life styles are having!

For those that don’t live around here; The Royal Show is a huge thing for so many people. A week long fair in which you get to experience the whole Agricultural experience from the city! Petting farms to cake displays, woodchopping to sheep sheering.

But anywhere enough about that lets talk about the exciting part! It was great to see the variety of people willing to learn and those that were there to teach! There were colourful displays drawing your attention, handouts for the parents and adults and plenty of games to keep the children occupied and keeping their attention long enough to teach them something

So if your a fellow perth resident why don’t you check out a few of the Sustainability groups we have here. You never know you could end up meeting your life long friend and share a journey to sustainability together!

– whats better than something thats free????? NOTHING! Its even better when you get to learn something that will save both the environment and some of that precious moolah that we work our butts of to earn!

– Take that coffee away with you everywhere – take a KeepCup and you can have that coffee everywhere you go!
